Waste of money for sure

I read through the reviews thinking the app was fixed. All I get is a blue light. False advertising. There should be a way to get your money back with apps like this. If they don’t work they should be removed!

Don’t bother

Go to apple pages and create a blank white document, turn screen to full brightness and sit beside it for 30 minutes!
…can I have my money back please?

Do not buy

It’s not an app. Like the other reviewer said, it’s only a blue screen

Misleading

The photograph is misleading. The photograph shows a white light, but I’m reality it is just a blue screen and not particularly bright. If their claim that blue light is as effective as white light is accurate, then there would be no need to misrepresent the color of the light in the photograph.

Don’t Waste Your Money

While it would have been great to have a functional light therapy box in your phone, unfortunately most phones (and tablets) are only 5-10% as bright as the top-selling light therapy boxes available online.

FAQ

What is this app for?

This app converts your Apple device into a light box to help manage symptoms of seasonal affective disorder (SAD), also known as winter blues or seasonal depression. It utilizes low-intensity blue light therapy, which research suggests can be beneficial for these conditions.

What are the key features of this app?

Key features include transforming your device into a light box, allowing you to create custom blue, white, or other colored lights, using it as a dawn simulator with an alarm, setting timers for light exposure sessions, and taking a short test to help determine if you might be suffering from SAD.

How much does this app cost?

The app is available for a one-time purchase, described as a 'fiver,' which is significantly less expensive than traditional light therapy boxes that can cost hundreds of dollars.

Is this app compatible with my device?

The description specifically mentions 'your apple device,' indicating compatibility with iPhones and iPads. It does not specify minimum iOS version requirements.

Who should use this app and what are the benefits?

This app is for individuals looking for a simple, portable, and affordable way to try light therapy for seasonal depression. It's beneficial for those who can commit to consistent morning exposure sessions for at least two weeks and prefer a straightforward solution over expensive equipment.
